The hard disk works without any problems under Windows 10. I don't know whether the backup software on it also works under Windows 10. I have never tried it out, but have always just formatted the HD.

Yes, you just need to format the disk in NTFS format to use it under Windows and in Mac OS Extended (journaled) or Mac OS Extended (journaled, encrypted) format to use it under Mac. Since macOS High Sierra, it is also possible to use the new APFS format.

Unfortunately, this product has been replaced by a new model with an incredibly beautiful design that you have rarely seen, which is ideal for installation in the kitchen or bathroom floor (/sarcasm off): WD My Passport Ultra (1000GB) The metal edition in silver is apparently still available: WD My Passport Ultra Metal (2000GB)

No, not here!

As far as I know, this should work because the external hard drive requires a 3.0 usb connection and the tv has one of these. In addition, all hard drives are built in such a way that they are recognised immediately, just like an usb stick.

Synology DiskStation DS416j supports USB 3.0 Type-A so there is no reason why the disc should not work! Greetings - r00tli

No clue. Try again?

Mainly, this one is 4TB and the other is only 3TB.

Ever heard of marketing? UVP = Unverbindlicher Verkauspreis = recommended retail price And because ist only recommended, digitec can define the price as they want. Be lucky they don't use the recommended price :D

Yes, no problem. The hard disk may have to be reformatted for Mac during the initial start-up for optimal use.

Unfortunately, this does not depend on the hard disk, but on the router used. The hard disk only serves as a storage medium.

Hey yes that's right you just have to reformat the hard drive to Mac and lose the Passport backup program, but in my opinion this is useless anyway^^ so it's not so bad XD Greez KingRaven90

The software "WD Security" must be installed on the respective PC in order to decrypt the HDD via password. However, the HDD can also be used without encryption if you wish.

This article must be reformatted in exfat in order to be used with a mac. We recommend this article: https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/product/wd-my-passport-for-mac-4000gb-externe-festplatte-5882404, which will be available in September.

Question already answered. There is no need to open a new question that is not relevant to this product here, thanks! https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/QuestionAndAnswer/bonjour-ce-produit-fonctionne-t-il-sur-windows-10-que-je-viens-dinstaller--30502

Yes, no problem. It is not necessary to install anything.

There is a cable included... but logically not a standard USB that would be freely available!

Yes. You have to reformattate for Mac again.

As long as you use the NTFS file system, this should be possible without any problems.

The hard disk works without any problems under Mac OS X, I use it there every day. It simply has to be reformatted first with the hard disk utility, which takes about 1 minute.

If I didn't understand your question: yes, the drive comes with a USB3 cable that you can plug into any USB port.

Unfortunately, the original cable cannot be re-ordered. But it works with one from here: https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/producttype/usb-kabel-292?f=177433-53967&tagIds=77-533-532

No, the hard disk must first be formatted for the corresponding operating system.
